Thanks Jon HotWires ordered

Olympia Flat wound strings has anyone ever tried these? and are they any good? I was thinking of trying flats but did not want to spend much incase I do not like them so I am going to maybe take a punt on these or should I pay the extra and get some Status flats? Thanks in advance

That M3 looks like a design that has been nicked from Traben lol but I like the look of the V7

I could recommend jacks instruments for routing and electrics could post tjem the body off to them

Andre bought a bass from me it was a nice and easy deal and I would deal with him again no problem

I think flats are worth a try if it was my bass I would not really fancy having it routed out as 1 that finish is very prone to light cracks no matter how careful you are and 2 I really think it will spoil the bass and not really give you what you are looking for now this is only a guess as I am unsure what the wiring is like in there but would a varitone switch be an option? it would sure give you a better range of tones As you know I am like you and could never get on with the Stingray type sound is why I moved it on. I think it could well be worth while giving BC's very own Ki0gan a PM and see what he might suggest as he is very helpful and knows his stuff and his work is second to none on the wiring front Sorry I cant be much help Oh and happy new year to you and yours mate

I just bought a bass from Will and it was a nice easy pleasant deal with good communication Will is a very helpful deal with confidence

I am a huge Kiss fan but really do not like the design of this bass and think it is over priced I would rather have a Punisher
